Congrats to Dawgies on the FTF. He has proved himself man worthy. Look for him to be wearing his new swag.
Manly Man Challenge
OK, let me start off by saying this cache is only available for hunting by the manliest of men (or women). My friend, if it was possible for a cache to sprout chest hair and a five o'clock shadow, this cache would look like Tom Selleck. It is just that manly.
It was never intended to drive to the mall so you can pick up that adorable shirt at Abercrombie & Fitch and the cache in under one hour. It wasn't meant to transport you to yoga class or Linens & Things while you PNG. No, that's what your other caches are for. If that's the kind of cache you're looking for, then just do us all a favor and stop reading right now. I mean it. Just stop.
This cache was engineered by 3rd degree ninja super-warriors in the highest mountains of Japan to serve the needs of the man that cheats death on a daily basis. They didn't even consider superfluous nancy boy amenities like GPS navigation systems (real men don't get lost).
There's only 50 feet that separate you on this hellcat from Planet Kicktale. Trust me, when you complete this cache your wife and the offspring that carry your name will talk about it for centuries. It will live on as a monument to your machismo.
Now, go look in the mirror and tell me what you see. If it's a rugged, no regrets, super brute he-man macho Chuck Norris stunt double, then go after this cache. Let me know when you do, but I might be out hang-gliding or BASE jumping or just chilling with my ladies, but I'll get back to you. No pictures can be logged for this cache. Real men hate cameras.
To sweeten the deal a little, I'm throwing in this pair of MC Hammer pants for the manly FTF. Yeah, you heard me. FREE MC Hammer pants. Oh and did I mention this cache also contains a 13 feature survival knife? Take it. I got ten at home.
If I see you trading my man gear for rainbow sissy coins and bracelets, I will delete your smiley face find faster than you can say back hair.
So go out, have fun, get dirty, and remember to be a man.
After much debate and speculation this cache has been approved and the permit is on file at the Bonham State Park Rangers' office. The only thing they ask is that you stay on the trail until you reach the cache area. It is only a foot from the trail.
Texas State Parks charge a $3 entry fee. It closes for day use at 10 p.m. Please check in with the rangers and let them know you are geocaching.
In our strong desire to show our continuing support for our state parks, ALL geocachers must pay the entrance fee or show your Texas State Parks Pass in order to log this cache!
Complete all six “manly man” challenges to join the man club! The first one to do so receives a $25 gift card to Bass Pro Shop! That way you can buy some more man gear.
